NOTICE: SUITABLE FOR INCLUSION IN MILK INTENDED FOR CALVES
Why? Because cow's milk is typically not ideally suited to the needs of a calf:
Colostrum | Whole Milk | Calf Requirements | Comments | |
Iron (mg/kg) | 10 | 3 | 75-100 | Deficiency causes anaemia |
Copper (mg/kg) | 2.5 | 1 | 10 | Essential for growth |
Selenium (mg/kg) | 0.1 | 0.02 | 0.3 | Vital for muscle development |
Vitamin A (iu/kg) | 12,400 | 11,500 | 11,000 | Calves born with low reserves |
Vitamin D3 (iu/kg) | 500 | 307 | 600 | Essential for growing animals |
Vitamin E (iu/kg) | 15 | 8 | 50 | Important for muscle function |
And because rearing lots of calves together puts them at more risk from disease.
CALF-pro1 with NuStart contains a full compliment of essential minerals and trace elements - but intakes take time to build. To give new calves the best possible start NuStart Milk Additive can be added to whole milk. With a range of essential trace elements and vitamins plus the NuStart essential oils, functional fibre and pre-biotic formula, it can be added to saved milk to fortify the level of essential, health enhancing ingredients.
Trace minerals and vitamins (Selenium (0.15mg/7.5g), copper (7.5mg/7.5g) and NuStart digestive system conditioning package.
Use for at least the fi rst 3 weeks of life and ideally until calves are weaned off milk. Each 10 kg bag contains 1333 daily doses (enough for 65 calves for 21 days). It is recommended that calves are offered high specifi cation calf meal also containing NuStart.
Withdrawal period before slaughter - Nil days
Add to each feed of milk or colostrum so that each calf receives 7.5 grams per head per day. Accurately weigh the required amount for the number of calves being fed into a container, add a small volume of milk and mix into a paste. Add more milk and stir before adding to rest of milk prior to feeding - thorough mixing is essential before feeding. Do not exceed the stated dose.
